The publicity arm of the New Zealand Tourism Board, known as 100% Pure New Zealand, have made a series of videos featuring well known director James Cameron. Cameron, whose movies include Avatar, Titanic, Terminator, and Rambo moved to New Zealand four years ago.

The short videos are all pretty good, and do a great job of showcasing what New Zealand is best known for. There are seven in the series:

So come visit us! And if you’re a British rugby fan, remember the Lions tour next year – there’s a lot more to do than just watch the rugby!

OMG I have to come back. My late wife and I spent a wonderful month in NZ back in 2000, and I spent the next year trying (and failing) to find a way to emigrate! Like Scotland, only more so, with lovely people and a better climate. Definitely on the bucket list.

The rules change all the time, so if you still want to come, it’s worth checking regularly. I heard on the news last night that since Brexit there’s been a four-fold increase in applications to emigrate to New Zealand.
